Pros
Paid above market rate for media jobs Outside of management: some of the best colleagues I've worked with
Cons
Without a doubt: the most unprofessional working environment I've ever experienced. Framed as "changing the future of journalism" and "combating misinformation and polarization;" ended up just being some guy's podcast. The team was a group of dedicated and talented people who were forced to dance around an abusive CEO's fragile ego to try and get any work done. I would tell folks to avoid this company like the plague, but luckily, that shouldn't be an issue going forward ... in 2022, management started firing folks left and right before imposing layoffs for the majority of the team. The YouTube channel is now completely gone, erasing the work + portfolio of everybody involved. They even "rebranded" as The Branch ... it seems the Debate ended up Lost after all.
